Quantum computers operate using quantum bits (qubits) and specialized operations called quantum gates. These gates manipulate quantum states and form quantum circuits, which are the building blocks of quantum algorithms.

This course introduces the core mathematical and operational foundations of quantum computing by exploring how quantum gates function and how they combine to create quantum circuits.

Students will learn how gates such as Hadamard, Pauli-X, Pauli-Y, Pauli-Z, Phase, and CNOT manipulate qubits and enable quantum superposition and entanglement.

By the end of the course, learners will understand how quantum circuits are constructed and how they enable powerful quantum algorithms used in modern quantum computing systems.
